  • Classic Early 19th Century Dress Style
  • Made at Townsends
  • Available in a Variety of Colors

This dress is based on examples from around 1810. Its squared, slightly gathered neckline and short gathered sleeves are true to the period. The high under-the-bust waist is classic Empire. Both the neckline and waist are tied in back. The bodice is closed in back with bone buttons.

Because undergarment styles were extremely diverse during the Empire period, we have settled the issue for this dress by fully lining the bodice. The skirt is lined to about 36" from the underbust, which emulates the knee-length chemises occasionally worn during the period. The subtle back train gives the skirt a graceful, sweeping hemline.

Clothing styles took a dramatic twist at the turn of the 19th century. The Empire dress was a prime example of this French fashion invasion, based on that society’s fascination with the ancient cultures of Greece. As the Empire style made its first foray into British societies, fabrics were very wispy and somewhat transparent, revealing the female form that had previously been revered with utmost modesty. Prudish reactions were strong. As a result, this very short-lived fashion period went through even shorter phases delineated by fabric choices and undergarments (or most often, the lack thereof).

This was the easiest product I've ever put together!!! I put it together by myself in an about a hour and I'm not a super handy girl usually. So far everything seems sturdy and it looks great.

So pretty and functional!
Color: Gold, Size: 33.9"W, Color: Gold, Size: 33.9"W
This cart arrived promptly and was easy to put together for me! I love the 2 mirror shelves, which I had specifically searched for. Usually the shelves on these bar carts are just glass and not mirrored, which means you see right through to the next level, which is wine bottles and the floor. I thought the mirrored shelves reflecting back just what’s placed on it looks so much more elegant. I also like the gold color, but just so you know, it is not the jewelry gold color, but more of a matte metallic taupey-gold (hard to describe). The color is pretty, but not the shiny, yellowish gold color that it appears to be on this seller’s pictures. I added another gold tabletop wine holder (also from Amazon) on the lower shelf and you can see what I mean by the color. Overall, I am pleased with the price, elegant look, easy assembly, the maneuverability, and how much it holds.
